[Chimera-users] HBond on every frames of a large trajectory

[Elaine Meng]

Hi Jérémie,
I suspect the problems may be due to the large data size rather than using the hbonds command in per-frame scripting.  It is common to combine hbonds with per-frame scripting of trajectories... it’s even in a tutorial:

<http://www.rbvi.ucsf.edu/chimera/docs/UsersGuide/tutorials/ensembles2.html#part1>

However, if you had a specific example of what you mean by not working, and the problem is reproducible (say on a smaller dataset that you could easily share with us), you could use menu: Help… Report a Bug.

I’ll have to leave it to others with no-GUI scripting experience to say whether there is a way to get these results without displaying the trajectory frames.
Sorry about the difficulties,
Elaine
